Molecular characterization and morphological description of cryptic haemoproteids in the laughingthrushes (Leiothrichidae) in the western and eastern Himalaya, India [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research, 2018
Background: Laughingthrushes (family: Leiothrichidae) consists of diverse and widespread species found in the Indian subcontinent but there is a lack of information on their avian haemosporidians.  Methods: We sampled 231 laughingthrushes of 8 species in

Novel RNA viruses associated with avian haemosporidian parasites.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Avian haemosporidian parasites can cause malaria-like symptoms in their hosts and have been implicated in the demise of some bird species. The newly described Matryoshka RNA viruses (MaRNAV1 and MaRNAV2) infect haemosporidian parasites that in turn ...

Polychromophilus (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae): A review of association with bats (Mammalia, Chiroptera) and the first record in the Neotropical bat, Myotis albescens (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) from Colombia. [PDF]

Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl
Some species within the family Plasmodiidae (Haemosporida) have been extensively studied due to their implications for human health. However, for other haemosporidians that infect wild animals the knowledge is limited.

Combining morphological and molecular data to reconstruct the phylogeny of avian Haemosporida

, 2019
The traditional classification of avian Haemosporida is based mainly on morphology and life history traits. Recently, molecular hypotheses have challenged the traditional classification, leading to contradictory opinions on whether morphology is ...

Egzoerithrocitinės Haemoproteus (Apicomplexa, Haemosporida) parazitų vystymosi stadijos laukiniuose paukščiuse: įžvalgos į vystymosi dėsningumus.

, 2023
Avian haemosporidian parasites of the genus Haemoproteus (Apicomplexa, Haemosporida) are widespread and can cause mortality in non-adaptive hosts. Over 170 species of these parasites were described but little is known about their complete life cycles ...

Detection of Avian Haemosporidian Parasites in Wild Birds in Slovakia

Diversity
Haemosporidians are a group of vector-borne parasites belonging to the order Haemosporida. These parasites infect avian hosts and require blood-sucking insects (Diptera) for transmission.

Genomic sequence capture of Plasmodium relictum in experimentally infected birds

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Sequencing parasite genomes in the presence of host DNA is challenging. Sequence capture can overcome this problem by using RNA probes that hybridize with the parasite DNA and then are removed from solution, thus isolating the parasite DNA for

A single Haemoproteus plataleae haplotype is widespread in white ibis (Eudocimus albus) from urban and rural sites in southern Florida

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2023
The American white ibis (Eudocimus albus), a common bird species in Florida, has become increasingly urban, with many populations relying heavily on urban and suburban habitats, which may alter parasite transmission.
